Company building on joint venture with SAS Sunrise

OAKVILLE, ON, March 30, 2017 /CNW/ - Building on its recent joint venture with SAS Sunrise, Loraxian today opened the doors on its new global renewable energy headquarters in Oakville, where it will employ senior level project management specialists to oversee operations around the world.

"It is good to be home," said Roland Kielbasiewicz, Founder and CEO of Loraxian, referring to his Canadian roots. "We could have located this key office almost anywhere in the world, but the conditions are right to be here in Ontario." Kielbasiewicz explained that Ontario is blessed with an abundance of trained renewable energy professionals due to the commitment of the Ontario government over the past decade to solar and wind power generation. "The knowledge, skills and experience that have been fostered in Ontario are marketable commodities in nations with rapidly emerging next generation renewable sectors," he said.

Loraxian intends to recruit more than 50 new senior level specialized employees for its Oakville location in the coming year. This highly skilled team will manage projects around the world, including its joint venture with SAS Sunrise in Southeast Asia, and new projects that are soon to come online.

Loraxian, an Ontario-based corporation, is a rising leader of energy and infrastructure solutions. Specializing in renewable energy production, infrastructure and energy conservation, the company can meet the needs of large and small scale projects utilizing its propriety project management system, which consistently delivers on time and below budget for its partners.
